The bar scene in Chicago’s Wrigleyville neighborhood is known for being rowdy, a little pretentious, and at times, feeling like the bro capital of the world. Most of the bars on the Clark Street strip will be packed to capacity on Friday and Saturday nights and if there’s a game, you can count on 2-3 times the crowd on the streets. Sheffield’s is like an oasis. In the midst of so much drunken debauchery, lies a cool, laid back bar with great food and an even better beer menu. They have what feels like 4 separate bars, each of which is fitted with multiple big screen TVs; and a huge outdoor area with it’s own bar. This place can get pretty wild from time to time, but the bros and yuppies tend to stay away; leaving an atmosphere filled with peace and girls that aren’t being harassed at every turn.

Tonight, the Union Concert Series will pick up where it left off with a dope show at Emporium Barcade in Wicker Park. The event is FREE and will feature performances from Pivot Gang, Auggie The 9th, Hurt Everybody and Saint Millie; rounding out what should be an awesome night. This one’s 21+ and as previously stated, it’s fuckin FREE. If you’re looking for something to get into for your thirsty Thursday evening, look no further than Emporium.

The Windy City Soul Club will be back at the Empty Bottle tonight, for it’s monthly event. The best rare soul DJs in the city will all converge under one roof, providing more than enough tunes to get down to. These are always 21+, the door for this event is $5 and presale tickets will not be available. If you’re looking to dance the night away, your best bet is to get there early before the place gets packed.

Tomorrow night, the Evil Olive will play host to another Porn & Chicken banger; this time in the form of an Adventure Time themed event. Last week was Quentin Tarantino themed (peep the video below) and by the looks of it things got wild….once again. Situated on Division & Milwaukee, the Evil Olive is at a perfect location for an all nighter on the town. If you’re interested in going, click the link below and RSVP via Do312 for NO COVER before 11PM. These are always a good time, just a matter of whether you’re brave enough to party through a Monday night.

Chicago’s Porn & Chicken dance party is back for yet another round this coming Monday at the Evil Olive. Voted Chicago’s best dance party by the Chicago Reader, P&C is ALWAYS the wildest party in the city. This time around the event is “Marvel Vs Capcom” themed, so anyone who plans on attending should dress up as their favorite character.
